APAT Main Event Structure - proposed slight amendment

(1/4) > >>

IrishTom:
Below is an extract of the APAT Main Event structure which is around Day 1 completion time:

   L10      500      1000      150      L11      600      1200      200      L12      800      1600      250      L13      1000      2000      300   


One small irritation of mine is that if we complete after L12 then we either have to do the 25 chip-up at the end of play on Day 1, which is a pain for players as chips are being counted and bagged before they can depart, or when we return for the start of Day 2, which is a pain for players and a real bugbear of mine as it inevitably delays play. 

I"d propose to change the L12 Ante from 250 to 200 to give us more scope to complete the 25s chip-up so as not to interfere with play in any way - with it having negligible effect on the structure and flow of the game.

Paulie_D:
Fine by me....on the odd, miraculous, occasion I get close to a Day 2...this has been a common gripe at the tables.

Scousebill:
I"ll go for that.......
Very rarely I get to that stage anyway but when I manage to do it more often then I will benefit from the change...

Chipaccrual:
Tom,

I used to change it most events with the casino at the time from 250 to 200 for exactly the reasons you give.

Makes complete and total sense and anyone that disagrees with it can speak to Des ;)

Matt D:
Seems sensible. Perhaps drop level 10 down to 100 ante too? Levels 28 + 29 too - drop the 1,000 denominations? http://www.apat.com/index.php/live-schedule/tournament-structure/
